Another Premier League game, another 1-0 win. For the 7th consecutive Premier League game, United
scored only one goal against their opposition. But following our horrendous defensive performances
at the start of the season, who would have thought that the single goal would be enough to win 4 of
those games?
Ashley Young has reflected on his move to Manchester United, following the 1-0 win against his
former club Aston Villa at the weekend.
"They don't come much bigger than Manchester United," said Young. "I have always

"Thursday nights, Channel 5!" was a chant designed by Manchester United fans when Liverpool failed
to get a top four spot in 2010, but expect it to be heard more often the next few months. United's

me," said Young.

Craven Cottage has been a difficult ground for Manchester United through the years, with only 1
point from 9 during the Reds' last three visits there. If that is not bad enough, United had
conceded 7 goals from those three games, which is painful reading for a team that puts a lot of
emphasis on [...
Despite picking up three points following a 5-0 win at Craven Cottage, United fans were left
disappointed by the news that Phil Jones had probably broken his cheekbone and would be out for six
